Philippe Nardin

Philippe Nardin (22 June 1533-) was a French nobleman of the mid-16th century. In 1558, he was introduced to Lady Mary Fleming by Mary, Queen of Scots, who sought for the pregnant Fleming to marry an eligible and wealthy bachelor such as Count Nardin. However, Nardin was a homosexual and had little sexual interest in Fleming despite being kind to her, and Mary called off their engagement plans.
